Shadows in the night light lurking here and there
shadows in the night light slinking everywhere
strolling around the park looking at the sky
it has got so dark wake up before you die

Shadows in the night light a nightmare you should fear
shadows in the night light don't let them get too near
walking down the alley home is on your mind
footsteps getting closer run he's right behind

Shadows in the night light you shouldn't be alone
shadows in the night light you won't make it to a phone
they watch your every move go home just don't wait
for when the sun goes down it may be just too late

Shadows in the night light waiting for their prey
shadows in the night light here they come to play
if you go out too late even with a friend
the shadows will be watching & they'll get you in the end.
